#425 Werfel's MIRACLE (2004)

A Quality Interruption

EPISODE #425-- We commemorate the 2024 Olympics with the post-9/11 feel good sports drama, MIRACLE, which tells the story of the rag tag team that beat the Soviet Union and won the gold for hockey in 1980. And, let me tell you, folks, there's more run-on sentences where that came from!

On the back end, we got a ton of stone-cold cinema classics (in color!). We talk APOCALYPSE NOW (1978) (in 70mm!), as well as THE LIFE AND DEATH OF COLONEL BLIMP (1943) and BLACK NARCISSUS (1947) at the Academy Museum here in LA, and, finally, LA CONFIDENTIAL, 1998's perfect marriage of James Ellroy pulp and classic Hollywood glitz. Always a full week over here at A Quality Interruption!
